    First of all, I get what you mean and agree 100%. That said, it’s interesting how you make a sharp distinction between shaming and ostracizing (saying to stop doing the former and do the latter instead), whereas I would phrase it that we should drastically ramp up the former until it turns into the latter.


    Also, Winder is in GA’s 10th Congressional District, not MTG’s (which is the 14th). I feel like we need to give at least equal time ridiculing Rep. Mike Collins (R, obviously) for also being a fucking useless “thoughts and prayers” piece of shit about this.

      I make the distinction because this shaming is just harsh words and accusal and those not only don’t work for them but embolden the shitty behavior, ostracizing requires action.
